Although Scott Cudmore will probably always be best remembered for his science-fiction, pantomime, high-opera production of Arthur Conan Doyle's The Hound of the Baskervilles (premiered Dec. 15, 1941 at London's historic Royal Opera House), it is with his recent work in music video and other film that he finds current critical acclaim. His music videos includes work for Fucked Up, Parlovr, Timber Timbre, Metz, Sarah Slean, Great Lake Swimmers, among many others. He is currently developing both a feature film and a short film, just like everybody else is.
